Interesting. Wish I'd thought of that.

It's cool. It feels artificial to me though. Maybe I just haven't read enough of them, but writing letters just to write letters? I guess I was hoping these were found letters from multiple people that had been collected rather than letters that were created by one person specifically for this project.

It's not artificial though. The explanation says that "The letters aren't to the strangers, they're to people I know."

It's like sending out all those letters you write but never send. Only to strangers. And the internet.

I loved this. Sad and sweet and beautiful.

The site design is nice and clean, but with all those color blocks, it's making me see gray dots in between the lines like the Hermann grid illusion.
